Birthday Celebration




Yesterday was my birthday. I can't believe the big 24! Chad and I are getting so old. Once again it was a happy one. My family and the Towners all came over and celebrated our birthdays. We had dinner and ice cream cake. Thanks to my mother we had delicious chicken enchiladas and Anita brought Chad's favorite oreo ice cream and I made a pumpkin ice cream pie. They were so yummy! It was fun to get together with everyone. Thank you to all of our family for your love and support. Chad was too good to me. He spoiled me, once again and surprised me with a new set of snow skis. I am so excited to go hit the slopes together. I love you Chad. Thank you for everything and for making my Birthday extra Happy!

Chad's Birthday!



Yesterday was Chad's 24th Birthday. I made him his favorite orange rolls for breakfast with fruit. I surprised him with some goodies, some new jeans, tiger woods game, macadamia nuts, he loves those, and sweet jordan basketball shorts. We had a good time. We went out to dinner to celebrate and had our favorite, sushi at MiKado. We tried the Birthday roll and it was sooo yummy! I hope you had a great Birthday Chad I love you so much. I feel so lucky to be able to celebrate another birthday with you. You mean the world to me.

Our Happy Halloween






 Before Halloween, Chad and I had fun carving pumpkins with the whole Towner Fam. Anita also taught me how to make some of her specialties like: carmel popcorn, grape juice and apple dip. She is quite the baker and she has such good recipes. I love it. All of her food she makes is so yummy. I have learned a lot from her. She is a great Mother-in-law. I like Halloween because I think it is fun to dress up. I dressed up as a Witch. On Halloween, We went to the Alta Football game to cheer our team on and support Jordy. Go Hawks!  Later The Burbidges had my family over for dinner and I went trick-or-treating with my two nieces for a bit. It was a good time. I just missed my babe on Halloween night. He was helping Eric with his sprinkler system at the last minute. We later went to a scary movie with Megan and Brandon Burns. It was probably the dumbest movie I had ever seen. It was so funny how stupid it was. I was laughing. So it was an interesting Halloween, different, but still good.

The Towners at Powell

Lake Powell with the Towners



Chad and I just got back from Lake Powell last night and had the time of our lives. It felt so good to be back at this place. We look forward to it every year. We are so sore from playing hard. We all got whip lash from jumping out of the boat at 26 miles per hour who's crazy idea was that? I haven't ever done it before so I didn't know what I was getting myself into. I just jumped off the boat after Chad and did what he did. Ouch! We all felt it. It hurt so bad. That wasn't fun at all. So I guess that wasn't the smartest thing to do. I won't do that again. I also had my fair share of face plants on the wakeboard. Other than that it was perfect. We did whatever we wanted. We enjoyed the nice water and the weather. We pretty much owned the whole lake, no one was there to chop up the water which was nice for skiing and boarding and it was was mirror water all day everyday. Chad and his brothers seriously could jump off the house boat all day and catch the football, that was fun. We especially enjoyed sleeping out under the starry sky. There is nothing like the stars at Lake Powell. Love it. We had a blast playing with the whole family. I can't forget to mention our last day out on the boat we ended up stranded in the middle of the lake. The boat just quit on us and wouldn't start. Chad and Jason started paddling us in with skis until God answered our prayers and some fishermen came to the rescue. There is always something. We really were blessed with a fun and safe trip. Thank You so much Dave and Anita for making this happen. We appreciate it.
